A very good training tool
I think this is a great interactive app that has 1000+ mate in 2’s. My only criticism is that the app doesn’t force you to find all variations, but apart from that I love the problems.
Well done
One request would be to have a hint where you just indicate which piece to move, but not where it goes.
Lost confidence in the puzzles
If I’m going to spend hours trying to figure out a “mate in 2” puzzle, then it better really be that… puzzle #17..illustrated London news is bogus…the “solution’ is in NO way a forced mate on the other side..it relies on black making an UNFORCED dumb move to “solve” it… I even used a chess engine to double check that the puzzle is bogus…

Best problem app

Fabulous puzzles
I've always loved chess puzzles in the old day when you would get one a week in a newspaper. There are so many of them in this app they have kept me busy for years. Great value for money.
You will never get bored
Perfect way to sharpen your brain.
Tons of smart intriguing puzzles
Simple but effective playing format.

The first move is never check :)
A great chess app that helps teach calculation, especially in complicated positions.
Superb!
Wonderful value and years of fun.
Excellente application !
Des mats à foison !
Great collection of puzzles
Great puzzles, really enjoying this app. But be warned, they are tough.
I'm apparently not as smart as I thought...
fun to pass the time away, though!
Very Nice
My spouse and I have competitions with each other and it's really enjoyable. The features in the app are great.
Mate2
macht Spaß
Very good
Well worth the few pennies. Excellent mate in 2 problems, and many of them.
Good, but could be better
Really nice 1,000 puzzles, good ones. Only thing is, it won't let you see what happens if, after white's best move, black were to make a move other than the one it considers "best". Sometimes it's far from obvious how to mate then.
Difficult!
These are incredibly difficult. They are designed rather than taken from actual games. I have a collection of mate in 4 that I can relatively easily solve and I am stumped by these.
So, once I get used tu them I'm sure they'll provide a lot. Right now it's mostly frustrating. So if you feel similarly, I suggest Chess King's Mate in 3-4 and Chess Tactics Art (1400-1600) and (1600-1800). You'll like all three.
Then maybe later I can solve these...

Seder
Awesome. Very mentally challenging.
Addictive!
I really enjoy this app. Sometimes I find it very hard to put down. I just know I'll do better on the next puzzle! I do wish that, after a puzzle is solved, I could reverse some black moves and try different responses. Sometimes it seems black may have made a poor choice, resulting in the mate.
Excellent mate un 2 puzzles
Good puzzle historical info with hints ans solutions.
Great for a mind workout.
